The BAzoo has il from a most reli-
able source that bond has been ell
tered into between Jaw GOul1, or the

way company Is to construct AMI

nave secured iris right of wav, and it
is now said thata survey OF the route
will commence next Monday prepara-
tory to track laying. As this COM
pletely upSeIs the neutrality cause OF
railroad etiquette, it is safe 10 say the
Chicago ami Alton road whose terri
tory Is thus invaded will no longer
hesitate to push its connections to Se-
dalia and thus counter check this ir.

BOwserS Bullets.

The dispatches yesterday contained
the details of tragedy at Springfield,
o., which resulted in the death of two
persons, Dora Belle Judd, aged about
twenty.six years, and Samuel BOwser,
aged about forty five. The girl had
refused the attentions of Bowser, and
he becoming desperate said, that she
should not live to marry any other
man but himself, and made the threat
good by shooting her, as stated above
BOwsers family resided at Monroe, ..
where be will be remembered as a
member OF family noted for their
exceeding good looks. 1t was almost
a common saying in that part of the
country when wishing to praise
any individual for comli-
ness to say he, or she, is as 'hand-
some as member of the Bowser fam
iIy." But while it Is true the Bowser
family were handsome In form and
feature, they were people of but lit
lie character. Almost without ex-
ception, they were noted for intrigue
and adventure, and their social stand
ing was far below par A sister of
Samuel Bowser, "a magnificent bru-
nette beauty, married, however, one
of the ablest lawyers in that vicinity,
and for a few years was well received,
and it was thought she would eventu-
ally give the family a tone which it
had previously sadly lacked. The
BOwSer blood beat strongly within her
veins, however, and the time came
when her name became public prop
erty,. through thej discovery of liason
which she had been engaged in with
a Young married man named Glenn
ents, whose father, VIM II. Glenn
ents, recently died, but who was dusit
ing his life one Of the most prominent
and wealth railroad men of the east.
Clements fled in the night to es-
cape the wrath of an irate husband
and afterwards become prominently
identified as, the proprietor of the
famous Congress hotel at Saratoga
springs, y, Y. The breach between
the unfaithfnl wife and her husband
was finally in "a measure healed, or at
least they were never divorced, but
heneeforth the almost won prestige
of the Bowser family did not niateri-
alize nor did subsequent acts of other
members serve to assist it. Samuel
Bowser the man who did the shooting
was not looked upon as being partic-
ularly reckless, but not much could
be said 20 his credit and that he finish
ed his career as announced in the
dispatches, barring the death of his
haplsssNietim, will hardly. cause a
very profound grief in the community
where so many years of his life were
spent.

young people they have been fooling
around curid's domain and like every

q brother convict, named Warner, in

HIS CONVERSION. ~
VIII. Allen, ''The Kid" was a
boy working for gas filter in Kan
sas City, last summer, and from his
own mouth, he must have
heen a pretty hard case,
He wandered into the Salvation
Army barracks, and there his atten-
ton was called to the religion ofJesus
Christ, and the saving and pardoning
power Of the Lord. In Salvation
Army parlance ''The Kid" come
through and acknowledged before the
world, his Redeemer. He was
'fcalIed" to beat the bass drum -
hence, he did it to perfection, and to
good effect. Since his residence in
Sedalia, he has proven good soldier
he mas worked hard and endured
privations and SCOTS for opinions sake,
with a remarkable fine display Of
upper lip and spinal column, and, up
to few days ago, he remained stead
fast, and still is steadfast, as far as
serving his Lord and Master. but he
has quit beating the drum, AID ceased
to be worker or an officer in the
Army.
HE BECOMES ENAMoRED. 49,. ... !
Among the converts to the Saliva

Miss, with a pleasant blue eye and
petite form, named Bertha russey,
daughter of William Tussey, who re-
sides at 1414 East Fourth street.

Salvation girl, who was as enthusiast

although she could not beat the dru no
without standing on stepladdef, for
